Is riding a bike an art form?

Posted in art on December 12th, 2009 by admin – 1 Comment

I hope we can all agree that performing arts is still an art… sort of. But does THIS qualify? A recent Mirror article covered “artistic cycling” which reminds me of figure skating, on bikes! It’s an activity that seems to be somewhat popular in Asia. I wouldn’t call this a type of art per se, but you be the judge. The video below is very relevant, showing an artistic cycling performance from the tenth annual Asian Indoor Cycling Championship. Two guys, two bikes, and a lot of riding around. Cool? Yes. Artistic? I don’t think so…

Some pictures of indoor artistic cycling here:
